We are slowly getting there! When we zoom on 15th May, it will only be two days until the next significant relaxation of covid restrictions. That will enable us to meet in groups of up to 30 outdoors (weather permitting) or up to six or two family groups indoors. I hope we can then enjoy … More May Zoom
This month has seen a country slowly emerging from a lockdown. With schools going back in March and non essential venues opening up soon after it is good to see that infection rates still seem low.

I can only conclude one was for me, the gorgeous Beccie, one for … More February Oasis Blog

Happy New Year to you all. Welcome to lockdown 3. Have you had your vaccination yet? I know some of our more mature ladies have had theirs, while the rest of us wait patiently in the ever increasing queues.

Happy New Year to you all. It seems as if we are taking one step forward and two steps back. The announcement of the vaccine roll out raised our hopes but the rapid spread of the new variant dashed them again. We are back in lock down and the timescale for vaccinations seems much longer … More Serena’s January Message
